A few years ago I met Jennifer Bourn at a conference where we were both speakers. I left her session with almost two pages of notes and plenty of ideas for improving my website.

Whether you’re reading about a flowing silk dress or a distressed leather bomber jacket, there’s usually a backstory to each item that includes adventure, intrigue, and a hefty price point. After reading the latest J. Peterman catalog, I thought about how they would describe simple office supplies. […]

(February 6, 2015) Forget Casual Friday…It’s the sixth annual Working Naked Day! A few years ago my friend, Mindy, gave her husband the gift below: a photo of her working naked.
